output file i.e. tran.tran.tran as different name

When i am running a transient simulation i get an output with name tran.tran.tran.
is there a way to get this in a different name for example my sweep parameter is x(0 to 1) and y(0 to 2).
Can i get these files as
x_0_y_0.tran.tran.tran
x_0_y_1.tran.tran.tran
x_0_y_2.tran.tran.tran
x_1_y_0.tran.tran.tran
x_1_y_1.tran.tran.tran
x_1_y_2.tran.tran.tran

I am having a simulation with huge corner approximately 5K so i want to distinguish b/w files.
Also the results are all created into folders with name as 1/ / 3/ 4/ 5/ 6/ ..... to as many corner i have, can this also be named with sweeping parameters ?

    No - even if you use native sweeps inside Spectre (using the sweep analysis) they wouldn't be named that way. For your second question, the folder structure is to allow ADE to keep track of what it ran, and the assumption is that you use the ADE interface to access the data - the family information constructed will have info on the sweep values. The folder naming can't be changed to have the swept parameters.

    You could use SKILL functions (e.g. maeReadResDB()) to find out the directory for each run and hence the individual results for a particular parameter combination.

    Thanks Andrew, i will find a way out to distinguish using some shell or skill script.
